How to update 2019 maps in navigation
I would first like to thank you for your help, Ian fairly tech savvy but i can't figure this out. I have downloaded the new premium 2019 maps for North America. I have unzipped the files and put them on a USB.
For some reason when I plug the USB into the dash nothing comes up. I went to the software update option but still got nothing, it says no USB recognized. Is there something that I am missing here? If you are aware of any step by step instructions i would really appreciate it! Thank you very much for your help! |

Also just re-formatted it to ExFat since my Mac won't let me do Fat-32. I am attempting to unzip the files again so it will take a while, will let y'all know if that works.

It's in there, it's just a little hard to find the first time. You have to use this one.

It took a while for my '14 X1 to recognize the flash drive (maybe 5 minutes). Might just need to leave it in longer. Oh, and I was able to format the drive FAT32 on my Mac. Good luck!

Thanks for the tips, i will try to leave it in when i go for a drive and see if it loads. I am using a USB2 flash drive right now and was able to format it to FAT32. Hoping it will work, will let y'all know!
Hey BillACK did you plug it into the center console or glove box? |

As a side note when updating the software you have to plug it into the center console, it won’t let you do it from glove box.
Just glad to have the map and software update done and completed! |

I found the maps files online at a "pay what you want" site and bought a "lifetime" code off of Ebay. Once I finally left the flash drive in the glovebox port long enough to activate the upgrade process, everything worked great!
